Prince of Peace Lutheran Church / Over-the-Rhine

Prince of Peace is an inner-city church in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood in Cincinnati. This church has stood for over 100 years and continues to shine the light of Jesus' Salvation for all God's children.

“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.”

Matthew 5: 14-16

The Prince of Peace Cold Shelter is now OPEN!

The entire Winter Shelter is now open. Until further notice the Winter Shelter will open each evening at 9pm and close at 6am the next morning. There are TWO (2) Cold Shelter locations; Prince of Peace Lutheran Church (1528 Race Street) and the Drop Inn Center (217 W. 12th Street).

To sign up for EITHER cold shelter, people should first go to the back door of the Drop Inn Center (217 W. 12th in the parking lot) and make sure to say you are requesting entrance to the Winter Shelter. Some people will sleep upstairs at the Drop Inn Center and other people will sleep at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church. If you want to sleep at the Cold Shelter at Prince of Peace, make sure your request that when you are signing up. Once you sign up, you can then go directly to Prince of Peace.

The Winter Shelter is for individuals and families who otherwise would be sleeping outside or in places not meant for human habitation. Everyone in this situation is encouraged to come.

We served over 200 at the New Year's Day Blessings Event!

Many Thanks to Scott Gilliam an the Mustard Seed Servants and to our own Julie Mills; Prince of Peace The Bridge Ministry!
